Aires 35-V

Hi,

Newbie here to APUG and I'm looking for some advice.

I picked up an Aires 35-V at a yardsale this weekend for $10. When I got
home and took a closer look and removed the lens I noticed that the
focus ring in broken. It comes off the body and doesn't appear to work.
Other than that the camera is in beautiful condition, my question is it worth
getting repaired and who do you recommend for repairs?

Thanks for the responce. That's what I was figuring. I sent an email to KEH camera repairs, just waiting to hear thier quote. If it's too much, I'll have a nice paper weight and I'll just have to find another working copy.

Repairs

Thanks. I just requested a quote on a repair for my OM-4T. It's overall in mint condition (was still in the box when I got it), but the shutter jammed. Dried out lubricants, I guess. Good luck with your Aries. I have one of those that has a stuck shutter too.

Thanks for the info. I have no intention of selling the camera. It's such a nice looking camera that
I want to get it back in working order. With what I paid for it and the cost of the repair it will have cost
me $65, I don't think that is too bad.
